Social Isolation
Sebastian Kitchen
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA Registered Member 32932
Social isolation is often, but not always, linked to social anxiety.
It can be difficult to admit to social anxiety, but it is surprisingly common. Lack of safety in being one's 'true self', or feeling safe to express ones inner world, especially in one's early life, can be contributive to an underlying anxiety in social settings. Many of us navigate life with various measures in place to cope with social anxiety, such as 'masking' or substance use which may serve to alleviate temporary anxiety but reinforces the cycle, rather than address the root cause of the anxiety in the first place. Like any other challenge, i will work with you as an integrative psychotherapist to understand these root causes of the patterns shaping your experience of social life, so that you can transform them on a deep emotional level, opening yourself up to a new way of being in the world.

Social Isolation
Michael Elwan
Registered Social Worker, PhD Candidate (Mental Health), MSW, GradCertMH, DipPsych, MBA
Social isolation is rarely about not knowing how to connect; more often it builds over time through loss, trauma, burnout, or repeated disappointment in relationships. I work with people who have pulled back from social life and are unsure how to return without overwhelm. The work prioritises safety, pacing, and the kind of slow rebuilding that doesn't ask you to perform sociability before you have any energy for it.

Social Isolation
Hargan Psychology
Psychologist
We know that humans are social animals; we have never been more 'connected', yet we can often feel so incredibly isolated. Social isolation does not only have a psychological impact, but has been shown to have considerable health risks. It can be a perpetuating pattern, however reaching out can be the first step to re connection!
